Yeah, cause no one ever broke the law under former mayors, huh? Remind me again the crime stats trend lately? Please include your source.

Look at any of his recent interviews.

Short of machine gun nests and antitank missile emplacements, not sure what you’re thinking he should have done.

His issue is he doesn’t even try to get anyone off of the streets.

He also does things to make it more expensive to run a business in Chicago, so businesses end up hiring less people and more people end up on the street.

Combined with his real estate taxes that he said would hammer the landlords and corporate leasing companies, but shockingly ended up raising rent for everyone.

Would love for the Daley’s to be back in office

The city has several political factions: Rahm’s will be running Mendoza again. The CTU will run Johnson (and lose). Daley’s clan will run a new person who has never run for office but is already building momentum.

Are you mad that crime exists?

High vacancy rates on Michigan Ave is bad for Chicago. But of course the majority of business robberies are on small businesses (~60%). Feel free to tell the owners in Logan, etc that their concerns are a non-issue. You have Alderman and police calling these kind of crime sprees that result in police chases dangerous to the public. Two kids should not have to grow up without a father because men with violent priors (10 is crazy) were allowed to continue their bad behavior unchecked

Need advice and help.

I have realized I grew up in a household where my dad did not treat my mom as an equal. He belittles her, is rude and convinced his way is the only way.

It is painful to say, but some of this shows up in me and in my relationship. I am starting to catch myself, and it to me seems to be more of a reaction than anythjng that is ever intentional.

Wondering if anyone has dealt with something similar, and any success in making changes besides therapy. Cont. in comments

VOO. I predominantly use Schwab’s robo advisor and have consistently been 8% below S&P 500. (1) based on the historical performance of VOO, am I better off shifting all of my retirement and brokerage accounts to VOO? (2) how do I do that? How should I go about this? Liquidate all my robo advisors and then buy VOO? Hope you all don’t roast me too hard!

Are there any well-off suburbs around Chicago where there's a significant amount of black or mixed race people? Significant meaning 40-50%+. I've seen a lot of nice black suburbs in southern and eastern cities but less in the midwest. In an interracial relationship and want to get an idea if there are any suburbs where our kids would feel represented or if we'll need to move down south for that.
